Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I agree with you that seizures may occur after a
head injury. However, it occurs only in a minority of patients (typically less than 10% of patients with head injury get seizures).
What I would suggest is to get a
CT scan of the brain done. If there is internal
brain injury, then there are higher chances of getting seizures. However, if the scan is normal, then, there is very little chance of getting seizures.
There is no need to worry, as even if seizures occur, they can be treated with medications.
I hope it helps.
Please get back if you require any further information.
Best wishes,
